Knicked Sharpening specializes in hand sharpening your blades, from kitchen knives to carbide saw blades.
Inherited from a grandfather, this family business is here to serve your family.
Knife Sharpening
For a knife to be sharp, the blade needs to be set to a specific angle. To sharpen the knife remove some of the blade to return it to that angle. There are different ways to sharpen a knife. Some will use a power grinder to strip away the metal, taking off as far more than necessary. But there is a better way.
My Process
I use a process where I take off as much as necessary but always as little as possible. I hand sharpen knives on a series of water stones. The process starts with a 1200 grit waterstone, then honed using additional finer grits.
200% Guarantee
I test every single knife to ensure the blade is sharp from tip to tilt. I also will follow up with you several days later to ensure you have noticed a positive improvement in your knives as well. If you have not, I will gladly offer to both refund you and resharpen any knives you have felt did not have an improvement.
It’s important to have a connection to the work you do.
The more time you spend doing the things you love, the more connect you become to it.
When I get to sharpen a kitchen knife, wood chisel or gardening pruner; I think about this connection.
For years my grandfather run his own business sharpening tools for people so they could be their best and connect them to the work they lived for. It could have been making meals for loved ones, building wooden heirlooms or gardening with family.
Being able to connect people with these moments helps me remember my late grandfather. He lived to serve others, this was just one of those ways he did so. Let me help strengthen the moments that will become memories for you. After all it is not just the fruits of your labour but the process that builds those ties that bind.
